Description:
If MySql is built on a Windows machine with a configuration other than release or debug, the mysql-test-run.pl script does not work with resulting executables because they are not created in a path search by mysql-test-run.

How to repeat:
1. Use CMAKE to generate VS Solution.
2. Open MySql.sln and select the RelWithDebInfo configuration.
3. Build the source successfully.
4. Attempt to run the mysql-test-run.pl utility.

Suggested fix:
mysql-test-run should read an environment variable to determine which path to search for executables.  A command line swith is a good choice because it must be supplied each iterration of the script.

  Visual Studio builds each configuration in a different sub-directory.  Only the sub-
  directories for release and debug are currently searched.
